The Gangrels took part in the Province Medal on Tuesday. the first rink comprised of Skip Robert Boyd, Peter Galloway, Bob Cherry and Ken Ross. This rink were playing against Crosshill skipped by Andrew Baird. Under Roberts guidance they began to put their stamp on the game with a win in the first end. There was mixed fortunes in the next few ends with the Gangrels losing 2 shots in the last end to leave us +2 at the end of the game.
The following game was against the Country Club skipped by Bella Kennedy. The rink this time was skipped by Euan Lawrence, David Gray, Ronnie Wilson and David Hope. The first end was to set the game up for the Gangrels with a 3 shot win. However the Country Club came back fighting and with some lucky touches they were able to win a number of ends. However we left the best for the last end where we had the hammer. With last stone to play and lying 5 shot's we were going for 6. Euan played his stone but unfortunately it drew more than anticipated and hit an opposition stone into the house and cut our margin to 4 shots. We finished the game +7. We were not to know how critical this last shot was to be until Billy Howat, Province President, made his speech. Billy was pleased to advise that one Club had a winning Score of +9 and this Club was the Gangrels.Thanks to all those who played in this competition to record this fabulous victory - and thanks to David Hope for the report.
In tonight's President's Cup, Peter Kennedy's rink continued their winning ways with a 6-3 victory over Richard Morrison. David Gray won by 6 shots to 2 over Robert Boyd's team and Peter Reynolds had an 8-3 win over Ernest Mutter.
As you can see here, Peter's rink is on 4 points, Ernest on nil and the other four teams are on two - separated only by a couple of ends.
